@Rogueperson, this is Jim using Karen's account. We met and talked for a while during the unofficial Meet & Mingle. Anyway, we both got Covid at the end of the cruise and missed the last two days Dinner Menus from the MDR. I have already downloaded your images. I am planning on scanning all of my hard-copies of our Cruise Compasses and include images of the 14 dinner menus into an entry for the RC Blog Cruise Compass section of their website. May I use your two images? Thank you.

Here is a copy of A Taste of Royal History menu that I recently downloaded from a RCCL Food Chronicles group (courtesy of Nick Vitani). Jim

I have a 14 night cruise coming up in a couple of months and have been working on the menu question for awhile. The same ship I will be on just recently had a 12 night cruise and had different menus for each night. Someone mentioned somewhere that there may be as many as 20 menus available. Checking around, I found a certain Royal Caribbean Blog website had most of the known menus available for download. I found two more this morning on another (unnamed) website group page posting. The menus that I am aware of (so far) are: *Welcome Aboard (usually first night) *A Taste of France (usually first formal night) *A Taste of the Caribbean *A Taste of the USA *A Taste of Mexico *A Taste of Italy *A Taste of the Mediterranean *A Taste of Royal History *A Taste of Asia *A Taste of the UK / British *Welcome to Royal Night (usually second formal night) *Welcome to Bon Voyage (usually last night) Jim

I have a 14-night cruise coming up in September and have been trying to find copies of all of the different menus that are now offered. I have only been able to identify the following: *Welcome Aboard (usually first night) *A Taste of France (usually first formal night) *A Taste of the Caribbean *A Taste of the USA *A Taste of Mexico *A Taste of Italy *A Taste of the Mediterranean A Taste of Royal History A Taste of Asia *A Taste of the UK / British *Welcome to Royal Night (usually second formal night) *Welcome to Bon Voyage (usually last night) I have not yet been able to locate a copy of the Asia or the Royal History menus on the Internet, and have not found a 13th menu. Does anyone know where to find all of the new menus?

We always decorate our door. We used to attach large island-style pictures that completely covered the door, then suround it by fish garland. One time when we were able to get the Ben & Jerry's Sweet on a cruise, so we covered the door with a plastic cow-spots table cloth. Now, we just post a couple of Cruise Critic signs and surround the door with the same fish garland we have used for years. (And yes, it helps us and others find their cabins during the cruise.)

Definitely register that you have a CPAP machine with Royal. (I use the link previously reported, but the email address does work, too.) I would say we have had about 50/50 chance of the distilled water and extension cord in the room when we arrive. We even got an extension cord once while on the Anthem (where it is not needed due to power being available by the beds). We now have two CPAP machines (one each) and bring a multi-plug to power both. During our last cruise, we were able to get a second bottle of water mid-cruise because of using two machines. As a side-story: One time we did register and when we got to the cabin, they were not there. We reported it to the cabin attendent. We did get the water, but were told there were no spare extension cords available. (Being an older ship, it was needed for the CPAP to reach the bed.) We emphasized the need to the cabin attendent and also reported it to Guest Services. By that evening, two people had delivered extension cords to our cabin. (We thanked and returned the extra / unneeded second set.) Jim (using Karen's account)
